Cc: reilly@cis.uab.edu The GPSS-Fortran system of Berndt Schmidt has been around for a long time. Two questions arise: 1. is the code available electronically, esp. for Unix-based environs ? 2. is or are there C versions of this system available Appreciate any information .. to reilly@cis.uab.edu [[EDITOR: We have a small GPSS kernel written using C/Yacc/Lex but it is really for educational purposes and includes only a small subset of the GPSS language. If interested, obtain the SimPack C Toolkit using the instructions at the head of this digest -PAF]] ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 4 Jun 91 15:53:28 MST From: Jerzy Rozenblit <jr@helios.ece.arizona.edu> Subject: Help To: fishwick@fish.cis.ufl.edu Cc: jr@helios.ece.arizona.edu X-Envelope-To: fishwick@fish.cis.ufl.edu We are looking for commercial or public domain software to assist in circuit simulation. Ideally, we would like to obtain a graphic, iconic circuit editor that generates a Spice-like file as output. Thanks, Jerzy W. Rozenblit Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engr.

I'd like to have parameters for (at least) the following components: BFG67 BFG135,A BFG198 BFP183 BFP193 BFP81 BFP93A BFR96S BFS19 BLT50 BLT80 BLT911SL BLU30/28 BLU60/28 BLV86 BLV90 BLV193 BSR31 MRF325 MRF327 MRF5175 MRF951 MRF9511,L MRF9411,L S-parameters for RF-transistors are available at some manufacturers, but if SPICE-parameters of any kind exist I would appreciate any information. Also information about commercial parameter measurement services in Europe is welcome.

This is to solicit information about both organizations and people actively working for the preservation or improvement of our environment (e.g., conservation of our forests, abatement of pollution, development of alternate energy sources, etc., etc.) -- even if they are not yet using modeling. I will appreciate anyone who knows of such work sending me: Name of person or organization Mailing address E-mail address, if any Primary thrust of the work, if known Use of models or not, if known If YOU will do so -- OUR ENVIRONMENT might be the beneficiary!

We are particularly soliciting industrial, business, and government participation as well as the active involvement of the academic community. We know it is vital that there be a dialogue between practitioners and researchers. Thus, in addition to research contributions, we look forward to reports detailing experiments, evaluations, problems, and opportunities associated with design, implementation, and operation. Such reports will be given special consideration. Submitted manuscript must be no longer than 5,000 words, be typed double-spaced, and include an abstract of approximately 300 words. Long papers and reports will not be considered. Authors should obtain company and government clearances prior to submission of the papers.
